Updating BIOS on Equium A60 to cause the BSOD?

Hey,.
I had my Equium A60 for a little less than 2 years and now it has started flasihing a blue screen when it works for a while, I tried to read what he says but it's too fast and then it restarts the computer! the only things I can do out there are BIOS of letters that I've now put together probably need an updated (or so I hope this is just the problem)...

given that I've never updated the BIOS until I was wondering if I make a mistake it will cover on my extended warranty? I think I also insurance on it could someone help please?

Hello

This document explains how to disable the automatic restart of Windows XP after a system failure:
http://support.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/FAQ5B01770000R01.htm

If you turn off it does not restart the laptop and you can read the error message.
But I think that this message is not really a help. You will get a memory address, and a common user is not able to read this BSOD.

The BSOD appears especially because of the misconduct of software or a hardware malfunction.
I put t think that BIOS update will help you with this problem.
I think you should try to reinstall the operating system. Especially the new facility allows to solve software problems

But probably the high temperature may also be responsible for these BSOD errors.
In this case you should check the fans. Most dust and debris would be responsible for the high temperature because fans may not turn with a maximum return.

If you have no experience a technician must clean the notebook professionally.

    I was wondering is it worth the update, unfortunately, there is no information
    provided regarding the bugfixes or improvements? Also can I use the
    Windows update tool or use the bootable CD, it's just I'm not sure
    flashing Windows XP, except if it is a procedure without normal fault?

    see you soon,

    Hi Richard

    Richard you have some problems with this device? If everything works properly I don't see a reason any BIOS update.

    If you think that the update of the BIOS is necessary, you can try Windows based Bios update but please check the first Description of the Toshiba BIOS update before you continue.

    Hello

    1. What is the number of KB updates that are at the origin of the problem?

    I suggest that you check the number of KB updates that have been installed recently.

    There is no history of update for Windows XP; but you can see what updates you have installed on your computer by clicking on add or remove programs in Control Panel.

    To see what updates you have installed on a Windows XP-based computer, you must go through a different process.

    (a) go to the start menu in the lower left corner.

    (b) choose Control Panel from the menu.

    (c) find the icon Add / Remove programs and double click it to open it.

    (d) a list of the installed programs. To see Windows updates put a check mark in the Show updatescheck box.

    (e) now, you will see also all the updates that are on your computer.

    Please provide information on the update installed that could be causing the problem so that we can better help you.

    I bought 3 optical mouse for my equium A60. The first 2 have worked for a short period, but then appeared to be very erratic, beating on the entire screen and the slightest touch. I just bought a third and spend money on it to combat this problem, but it's always like it. It's a belkin wireless optical mouse. The connection is USB and I have no driver to install. It flies just all over the screen completely uncontrollable. Please can someone help.

    Hello

    Have you checked the pointer options in the properties of the mouse?
    In my opinion, you should try changing the query options to slow down the pointer options.
    In addition, improve it the accuracy of the pointer must be marked.

  • nipalk.sys, causing the BSOD 000000c 4 Win7 64 bit stop

    I am running Win 7 64 bit and installed "Windows Software Development Kit (SDK) for Windows 8 consumer Preview" today.

    Now, I get the BSOD Stop 0x000000C4 on each time you start nipalk.sys error

    The only work-around, I could come up with is to rename the driver in nipalk.bak, obvisously I can no longer use it in this case so it's not a solution.

    There's a PAL 2.6.5 update on ni.com site, but this does not solve the problem for me.

    nipalk.sys is the 2.1541.3.0 version of the 14/02/2011.

    I would be grateful all the solutions.

    Hi grcutter,

    This assertion of specific Verifier, STOP 0xC4 in nipalk.sys with P1 = 0xF6, was reported to R & D such as CAR #185772. It will be corrected in a future version of NOR-PAL, which should be delivered with a future version of any drivers OR you use. Until then, the solution is to disable the "Security controls" setting in the driver verifier.

  • Equium A60 - error caused by the RAM problem - Windows tool does not work!

    Hi all

    When closing my laptop, I got the blue "screen of death" and it restarts, windows came with this analysis of the accident: "error caused by the memory problem to live: run the Windows tool". I downloaded diagnostic tool (mstinst.exe), he opened so I got "windiag.iso" and he burned on a CD like they told me (the use of 'Record Now') and then I put in the CD drive and rebooted my computer. But it did not launch the tool! Does anyone know why it went wrong and how can I make it work? Even if I got the tool to work, I would be able to solve the problems of RAM anyway, just taking my laptop to a repair center?

    Thanks :)

    Hello

    I put t know if you have seen this page http://oca.microsoft.com/en/windiag.asp but there you can find a detailed explanation of how to use the Windows Memory Diagnostic tool.

    Good luck!

    Thank you

    Hello

    It seems that the laptop starts fine but the Windows operating system may not start correctly.
    In your case, I recommend once again to start and to access the BIOS.
    Here, you must set it to the default settings and must save the changes.

    In addition, you should boot from the Windows CD and must attempt to reinstall new OS.
    If this will not help so I assume that something was wrong during the update of the BIOS and the BIOS should be reflashed again.

    Unfortunately the BIOS can be reflashed back only by an ASP because ASP can use a traditional BIOS version that allows you to update if you are using external USB FDD drive.
